The outside lane of I-10 westbound from mile marker 108 (Bayou Teche) to mile marker 107 (Westbound Weigh Station) will be closed on Thursday, July 16 at 8 p.m. until Friday, July 17 at 6 a.m., weather permitting.

This closure is necessary to allow crews to repair a damaged traffic impact attenuator.

The road will be open to regular traffic with no vehicle restrictions.

Emergency vehicles will have access to the area but may encounter delays. No detour.

The $124.7 million I-10 widening project will involve widening a 7.11-mile section from I-49 to Breaux Bridge (State Project Number H.003003). The project will include pavement replacement within the existing lanes and the construction of one additional lane in each direction along I-10 from I-49 to LA 328 (Breaux Bridge).

The project began in May 2017 and is estimated for completion in September 2020.
